UMass Lowell Athletics

After leading his team in both goals and points the past week, UMass Lowell men's soccer freshman Daniele Mastroianni (Montréal, Quebec) has been named the America East Rookie of the Week, as announced by the conference on Tuesday morning.
 
In the 2-1 victory over Northeastern on August 28, Mastroianni helped ignite the River Hawk offense, scoring his first career goal in the 51st minute to give his team the lead. With the game tied at 1-1 and only seven minutes remaining, the rookie once again found the back of the net to put his team on top and seal the win.

For his efforts, Mastroianni was also named the River Hawk of the Week. The "River Hawk of the Week" is chosen in voting by the UMass Lowell Athletic Communications staff. It honors the top athlete, male or female, based on performance during the previous week of competition.
